Overview of Methanol Production
Methanol is produced primarily through the catalytic hydrogenation of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide with hydrogen, using a copper-based catalyst.
Balanced Chemical Equation(Methanol)
$CO(g) +$ $2H_2(g) \leftrightarrow CH_3OH(g)$
Conditions for the Reaction
Optimal conditions include a temperature range of 200-300°C, a pressure range of 50-100 atm, and the presence of a copper/zinc oxide/alumina catalyst.
